Description

StarTech SMDOS2LCLC3M OS2 Single-Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The StarTech SMDOS2LCLC3M is a 3-meter (9.8ft) OS2 single-mode duplex fiber optic cable designed to reliably connect network devices. It features LC connectors on both ends, ensuring a secure and stable link for high-speed data transmission up to 100Gbps. This cable is essential for extending network reach in data centers, enterprise environments, or any application requiring robust fiber optic connectivity between network switches, servers, or other optical equipment. The SMDOS2LCLC3M model specifically addresses the need for a standard-length, high-performance fiber link in structured cabling systems.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment utilizing LC duplex connectors and supporting OS2 single-mode fiber specifications. This includes a wide range of enterprise-grade network switches, routers, fiber media converters, and network interface cards (NICs) from various manufacturers. It is suitable for use with 10Gbps, 40Gbps, and 100Gbps Ethernet connections, as well as other high-speed fiber optic protocols.

Installation Notes

When installing, ensure the LC connectors are clean before insertion to prevent signal degradation. Avoid sharp bends (minimum bend radius is typically 5cm for OS2 single-mode fiber) to maintain signal integrity and prevent damage to the fiber core. The duplex configuration means two fibers are used for simultaneous transmit and receive operations.
